I enjoyed Sonali Chunodkar’s presentation titled, “Lost Tales and Found Myths: Christopher Tolkien on the ‘Mythology for England’” exploring the implications of the character Ing of Luthany. The connections Sonali makes are thought provoking! #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Great presentation from researcher Jessica Yates about lectures she took from Christopher Tolkien at Oxford in the 60s about Vikings and Old English heroic poetry. It was neat to hear about the topics Christopher covered. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Absolutely loved Sara Brown’s presentation about the Athrabeth! Sara posed so many enthralling questions about the purpose of the Athrabeth, and whether Christopher was right to publish it. This was incredible! Thanks so much, Dr Sara Brown 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

A fantastic presentation about the Athrabeth from Kristine Larsen! She looks at the levels of metacognition in this mind-boggling thought experiment, piecing together it’s genesis, showing how the notes give insight to how to experience it. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Beautiful presentation from Christina Scull and Wayne G. Hammond. I loved hearing about their relationship with Christopher, developed over years of careful and diligent work and their deep respect of Tolkien. Their books are a gift to us all. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Wonderful presentation by Nicholas Birns exploring Christopher Tolkien’s, “The Battle of the Goths and the Huns.” It has been fascinating to hear about Christopher as a scholar of early medieval legend using evidence-based philology. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

I loved Yvette Kisor’s presentation, delving into Christopher as a reader of his father’s work expressing emotional responses that give us a deep sense of the work’s significance, as seen in Christopher’s commentaries of The Lay of Leithian. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Fantastic presentation from Robin Reed about the absent female characters in the legendarium, lessened by the work that Christopher did. The outpouring of camaraderie in the Zoom chat was wonderful! For all the unnamed daughters! #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Excellent presentation from Michael D. C. Drout exploring the evolution of characters Trotter/Strider & Barliman Butterbur using digital stylometry. Without Christopher’s work in The History of LotR, this detective work would not be possible. #TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien

Beautiful and touching presentation by the queen Verlyn Flieger. Speaking of father and son in relation to the Athrabeth, she described one man who invented a concept and one man who preserved it- both of whom eventually dismantled it. 💚#TolkienSociety #ChristopherTolkien
